Legality check on SC proposal

Postby Sedgistan » Thu Jun 03, 2010 12:03 pm

I saw something about the process for requesting legality checks on WA proposals changing, but I can't remember what the decision was - so apologies if I'm doing this wrong.

As its been deleted beforehand (with no reason given for the deletion), could a mod who is familiar with the Security Council rules have a look over this proposal to let me know what (if any) legality problems it has.

I believe that was only for the GA.

The thread Unibot has linked to is about GA rules as they apply in general, not about specific proposals.

In another thread, however, we recently formalised the way we deal with all WA proposals, to ensure that all the WA-involved mods get a chance to comment and to speed up the process.

In summary, a player makes a legality query in a thread. If it's not answered within a few days, they post in Moderation linking to the thread and asking for a check. Whoever first sees it posts that it's been noticed, copies it to Another Place so all WA-involved mods can comment on it, and posts the final ruling in the original thread (which can take a few days, as we're not all available at the same time, and we do like to argue about politely discuss it first.).

Sedge, for future reference, mods don't usually do full-proposal checks. Authors ask us to look at the legality of a particular aspect. However, since this is under the new rule, it's probably best that we all have a look at it.

Cheers - it was also because it was deleted last time, and I didn't really get a proper answer as to why that happened.
